Hi,
I definitely had the same issue and had to revert to CORE1 for
both my
Server and Storage node. They are both Qualstar TLS46120 with AIT-3 or
AIT-4 drives. In our case, it looked like the drives were ok but the
jukebox
was not.
I'd be curious to know if anyone else is running a server
with any of
the higher Fedora distributions. And please, no DISTRO Zealots.
Happy New Year, all.

I have tried to install Networker 7.3 on a RedHat Fedora Core 3 that is
based on the 2.6 kernel.
Networker on my Fedora core seems to not be able to handle the jukebox
and its devices.
Is the Fedora kernel that different from RedHat ES4 or is this a flaw in
the new 7.3?
As you can see below, the FC3 properly recognizes the devices but
Networker seems to be confused.
